I am so excited that it's finally spring, aren't you? It's been cold long enough. We've been hard at work on the yard, and in the garden. Stuff is actually growing! I've even already cut leaf lettuce and herbs to use in recipes this week! In between sneezing, I'm trying to keep the squirrels out of my vegetable garden.

One of the best things about my garden is having fresh items to add to each meal. Things just taste better when you've cut them 3 minutes ago. Everywhere I've traveled in the world, I've always loved the varieties and tastes of the local veggies and herbs. After eating some of those amazing dishes, plain old salads just won't do for me.

I am not sure what most of this is, but it is not dead yet. WINNING.

I wanted to make a collection of different kinds of spring salad recipes on my blog today because very soon I will have lots of green things to cut up and make salad out of. But, I don't want to make just any old salad. I want a salad from somewhere I don't live. Something fancy, and different.

This Collection of Spring Salads was made using Foodie.com, which is a unique recipe collecting platform, kind of like Pinterest. They are sponsoring this post and this collection that I'm sharing with you. You can sign up for Foodie.com and follow me as I build interesting recipe collections. I'll follow you back if you do!

This collection of 13 salad recipes with an accent includes:Azalina's Malaysian Salad: With peanuts and chilies, crispy and spicy!

Russian Olivier Salad: Perhaps the most traditional Russian salad, you probably have all these ingredients already on hand.
